Character displacement and community assembly in Anolis lizards
Stuart, Yoel Eli (2013-10-08)At broad scales, community ecologists study how biogeographic factors like environmental dissimilarity and geographic distance influence community assembly and composition. At small scales, community ecologists study how ... -
Ecological character displacement: glass half full or half empty?
Stuart, Yoel Eli; Losos, Jonathan (Elsevier BV, 2013)Ecological character displacement (ECD), the evolutionary divergence of competing species, has oscillated wildly in scientific opinion. Initially thought to play a central role in community assembly and adaptive radiation, ... -
Inferring Predator Behavior from Attack Rates on Prey-Replicas That Differ in Conspicuousness
Stuart, Yoel Eli; Dappen, Nathan; Losin, Neil (Public Library of Science, 2012)Behavioral ecologists and evolutionary biologists have long studied how predators respond to prey items novel in color and pattern. Because a predatory response is influenced by both the predator’s ability to detect the ... -
The island–mainland species turnover relationship
Stuart, Yoel Eli; Losos, Jonathan; Algar, Adam C. (The Royal Society, 2012)Many oceanic islands are notable for their high endemism, suggesting that islands may promote unique assembly processes. However, mainland assemblages sometimes harbour comparable levels of endemism, suggesting that island ... -

Stuart, Yoel Eli; Campbell, T. S.; Hohenlohe, P. A.; Reynolds, Robert Graham; Revell, L. J.; Losos, Jonathan (American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2014)
